WHAT IS THE VIDEOGAMES:
 A video game is an electronic game in which one or more people
interact, through a controller, with a device that displays video images.1
This electronic device, known generically as a "platform", can be a
computer, a machine arcade, game console, or portable device, such as
a mobile phone. Video games are, year by year, one of the main
industries of art and entertainment.
TYPES OF MOST FAMOUS VIDEO GAMES:
 1. ACTION GAMES Action games are just that—games where the
player is in control of and at the center of the action, which is mainly
comprised of physical challenges players must overcome. Most early
video games like Donkey Kong and Galaga fall into the action category.

 2. ACTION-ADVENTURE GAMES Action-adventure games most


frequently incorporate two game mechanics—game-long quests or
obstacles that must be conquered using a tool or item collected, as well
as an action element where the item(s) are used.
